PART IV

BENEFICIAL INTERESTS IN TRUST

SECTION 4.1. UNDIVIDED TRUST INTEREST.

(a) The Initial Beneficiary shall hold an exclusive, undivided beneficial interest in all assets of the Trust (the “Undivided Trust Interest” or the “UTI”), other than those divided, identified Trust Assets that are from time to time allocated by the Trust, upon the written direction of the Initial Beneficiary and otherwise in accordance with Section 4.2, into one or more separate portfolios of Trust Assets (together with any other Trust Assets allocated to or earned by any such portfolio(s), and any proceeds thereof, collectively, “SUBI Assets,” and all Trust Assets, other than SUBI Assets, are the “UTI Assets”).

(b) The Undivided Trust Interest initially shall be represented by a single trust certificate (together with any replacements thereof, the “Undivided Trust Interest Certificate” or the “UTI Certificate”); provided, however, that, at the request of any holder thereof, the Undivided Trust Interest may be represented by two (2) or more such certificates that, in the aggregate, represent the entire Undivided Trust Interest, such divided certificates to be issued pursuant to a supplement to this Agreement (each, a “UTI Supplement”) which shall specify any terms or conditions relevant to the issuance thereof, as shall be prescribed and established by such holder and by the pledgee of any UTI Pledge. A UTI Supplement also may specify additional terms or modify the terms of this Agreement, but only with respect to the UTI. Except as set forth in any applicable UTI Supplement, any Undivided Trust Interest Certificate shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required by this Agreement, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends and endorsements placed thereon as may, consistently herewith, be approved by the Initial Beneficiary. Any portion of any Undivided Trust Interest Certificate may be set forth on the reverse or subsequent pages thereof. Each Undivided Trust Interest Certificate shall be printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed, photocopied or otherwise produced or may be produced in any other manner as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the Initial Beneficiary.

(c) The UTI shall be a separate series of the Trust as provided in Section 3806(b)(2) of the Business Trust Statute. Separate and distinct records shall be maintained for the UTI and the UTI Assets shall be held and accounted for separately from the other assets of the Trust or any SUBI. The debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to the UTI or the UTI Assets shall be enforceable against the UTI Assets only, and not against the assets of the Trust generally or against any SUBI Assets. Except to the extent required by law or specified in this Agreement, the Undivided Trust Interest shall not be subject to claims, debts, liabilities, expenses or obligations arising from or with respect to any SUBI or any Trustee. No creditor or holder of a claim relating to assets allocated to the UTI shall be entitled to maintain any action against or recover any assets allocated to any SUBI.

4

(d) Any holder, assignee or pledgee of an Undivided Trust Interest or Undivided Trust Interest Certificate shall be deemed, by virtue of the acceptance of such Undivided Trust Interest, Undivided Trust Interest Certificate, assignment or pledge, to have (i) agreed, accepted and to have become bound by and subject to the non-petition covenant set forth in Section 6.9 and (ii) released and waived all claims against or with respect to any assets owned by the Trustees in their respective individual capacities and all of the Trust Assets other than the UTI Assets included from time to time within the UTI Portfolio and proceeds therefrom and, in the event that such release is not given effect, to fully subordinate all claims it may be deemed to have against such released Trust Assets. Without limiting the foregoing, each holder, assignee or pledgee of an Undivided Trust Interest or Undivided Trust Interest Certificate shall be deemed to have released and waived all claims against or with respect to all assets allocated to each SUBI Portfolio and, in the event that such release is not given effect, to fully subordinate all claims it may be deemed to have against all Trust Assets allocated to each SUBI Portfolio.

SECTION 4.2. SPECIAL UNITS OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST.

(a) The UTI Trustee shall from time to time, as directed in writing by the Initial Beneficiary, identify and allocate, or cause to be identified and allocated, on the books and records of the Trust one or more separate portfolios of SUBI Assets to be accounted for independently within the Trust (each such portfolio, a “SUBI Portfolio”). Upon their allocation as SUBI Assets, such Trust Assets shall no longer be assets of, or allocated to, the Undivided Trust Interest (unless and until specifically reallocated to the Undivided Trust Interest from that SUBI Portfolio pursuant to the terms hereof). The beneficial interest in each such SUBI Portfolio shall constitute a separate “Special Unit of Beneficial Interest” (“SUBI”) in the Trust. Separate and distinct records shall be maintained for each SUBI Portfolio and the SUBI Assets associated with each SUBI shall be held and accounted for separately from the other assets of the Trust or any other SUBI Assets. The Administrative Trustee shall execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trust, to or upon the written order of the Initial Beneficiary, one or more SUBI Certificates evidencing each SUBI, each SUBI representing a specific divided interest in (but only in) such identified SUBI Portfolio and the SUBI Assets allocated thereto.

(b) Each SUBI shall be represented by one or more certificates (each a “SUBI Certificate”) to be issued by the Trust and shall be created by the execution of a supplement to this Agreement (each a “SUBI Supplement”), which SUBI Supplement shall specify the terms and provisions pursuant to which SUBI Certificates shall be issued with respect to such SUBI; the form of any SUBI Certificate(s) to be issued in connection therewith; the initial SUBI Assets to be included in such SUBI Portfolio; the arrangements, if any, whereby additional SUBI Assets may subsequently be added to the SUBI Portfolio; the provisions under which the proceeds of the related SUBI Assets shall be collected, invested and distributed; and other relevant terms and provisions specific to such SUBI, all as shall be prescribed and established by the Initial Beneficiary.

(c) Each SUBI shall be a separate series of the Trust as provided in Section 3806(b)(2) of the Business Trust Statute. The debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses

5

incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to each SUBI or the related SUBI Assets shall be enforceable against such SUBI Assets only, and not against the assets of the Trust generally or against any other SUBI Assets or the UTI Assets. Except to the extent required by law or specified in this Agreement or in the related SUBI Supplement, SUBI Assets with respect to a particular SUBI shall not be subject to claims, debts, liabilities, expenses or obligations arising from or with respect to the Trust, any Trustee, the UTI or any other SUBI. No creditor or holder of a claim relating to assets allocated to any SUBI shall be entitled to maintain any action against or recover any assets allocated to the UTI or any other SUBI. Notice of this limitation on interseries liabilities and the limitation set forth in Section 4.1(c) shall be set forth in the certificate of trust of the Trust (whether originally or by amendment) as filed or to be filed in the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware pursuant to the Business Trust Statute, and upon the giving of such notice in the certificate of trust, the statutory provisions of Section 3804 of the Business Trust Statute relating to limitations on interseries liabilities (and the statutory effect under Section 3804 of setting forth such notice in the certificate of trust) shall become applicable to the Trust and each SUBI and the UTI.

(d) Each holder of a SUBI shall appoint for such SUBI a trustee (a “SUBI Trustee”) which shall perform such duties, have such responsibilities and adhere to such standards of care as are specified in Part V of this Agreement, but only with respect to the SUBI for which it was appointed. The same Person may be appointed as SUBI Trustee for all or any SUBIs.

(e) No interest in any SUBI, SUBI Certificate or SUBI Portfolio shall be transferred, assigned, sold or conveyed if, as the result of such transfer, assignment, sale or conveyance, the Trust would become a publicly traded partnership for purposes of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

(f) Any holder, assignee or pledgee of a SUBI or SUBI Certificate shall be deemed, by virtue of the acceptance of such SUBI, SUBI Certificate, assignment or pledge, to have (i) agreed, accepted and to have become bound by and subject to the non-petition covenant set forth in Section 6.9 and (ii) released and waived all claims against or with respect to the Trust Assets allocated to the UTI Portfolio and each other SUBI Portfolio and, in the event that such release is not given effect, to fully subordinate all claims it may be deemed to have against all Trust Assets allocated to the UTI Portfolio and each other SUBI Portfolio. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed a release or waiver by any party of any claim or right against VCI or VCI’s interest in respect of such a claim or right.

SECTION 4.3. FORM OF CERTIFICATE; REGISTRATION OF CERTIFICATES.

(a) The Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of an authorized officer of the Administrative Trustee. Certificates bearing a manual or facsimile signature of individuals who were, at the time when such a signature shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Administrative Trustee shall, when duly authenticated pursuant hereto, be validly issued and shall entitle the holder of such Certificate to the benefits of this Agreement, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall cease to be so

6

authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication and delivery of such Certificates. No Certificate shall entitle its holder to any benefit under this Agreement, or shall be valid for any purpose, unless there shall appear on such Certificate a certificate of authentication, executed by the Administrative Trustee or an agent thereof, by manual signature; such authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence that such Certificate shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

(b) The Administrative Trustee shall keep or cause to be kept at its offices at One Illinois Center, 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000, or such other office as it shall designate, by written notice to the Initial Beneficiary, a certificate register (the “Certificate Register”), in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Administrative Trustee shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Administrative Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver in the name of the designated transferee or transferees one or more new Certificates of the same type and proportionate beneficial interest dated the date of authentication by the Administrative Trustee. Each Certificate presented or rendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Trustee, duly executed by the holder of such Certificate or its attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange shall be canceled and subsequently disposed of by the Administrative Trustee in accordance with its customary practice. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate, but the Administrative Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates. Prior to the due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Administrative Trustee and each agent of the Administrative Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate shall be registered in the Certificate Register as the owner of such Certificate for all purposes, and neither the Administrative Trustee nor any such agent shall be bound by any notice to the contrary. The Administrative Trustee shall furnish or cause to be furnished to each Servicer and the Initial Beneficiary, within three (3) Business Days after receipt by the Administrative Trustee of request therefor, a list of the names and addresses of the holders of the Certificates.

SECTION 4.4. MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST OR STOLEN CERTIFICATES.

If any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Administrative Trustee, or the Administrative Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the mutilation, destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and there is delivered to the Administrative Trustee such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by it to save it harmless, then the Administrative Trustee shall execute and authenticate, in lieu of such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a Certificate of the same type and proportionate beneficial interest bearing an identification number not contemporaneously outstanding, which shall constitute for all purposes a substitute for the original Certificate, which original Certificate shall be deemed canceled and shall be so marked on the books and records of the Administrative Trustee.

7

SECTION 4.5. RETITLING OF LEASED VEHICLES.

Each holder of a UTI Certificate or, subject to any restrictions on such right set forth in the agreements governing any Financing, a SUBI Certificate, may at any time, at its option, to be exercised by written notice delivered to the applicable UTI Trustee or SUBI Trustee and the applicable Servicer, request that the Leased Vehicles allocated to such UTI Certificate or SUBI Certificate, as the case may be, be retitled in the name of such holder (or a Person designated by such holder), that a lien may be noted on the Certificate of Title therefor in the name of such holder (or a Person designated by such holder), or that possession of such Certificate of Title and/or the other Trust Assets allocated to such UTI Certificate or SUBI Certificate, as the case may be, be transferred to such holder (or a Person designated by such holder) free and clear of the interest of Trust. Except as otherwise provided in the related SUBI Supplement, such holder shall indemnify the Trust, the Trustees and such Servicer for, and hold the Trust, the Trustees and such Servicer harmless against, any and all expenses, costs, liabilities, losses and claims incurred by any of them as a result of or relating to such retitling or transfer, or any action such holder shall take or fail to take as the registered owner of such Leased Vehicles or the owner of such Trust Assets, including, without limitation, sales and transfer taxes and registration fees.

PART V

DUTIES AND POWERS OF TRUST AND TRUSTEES;

TRUSTEE LIABILITY

SECTION 5.1. DUTIES AND POWERS OF TRUSTEES; LIMITATIONS ON TRUST ACTIVITY.

(a) Each Trustee undertakes to perform such duties, and only such duties, as are specified in this Agreement, any supplement entered into pursuant to this Agreement by such Trustee, or, except with respect to the duties of any Trustee to the extent such duties relate to any SUBI Portfolio and the assets thereof, as it may be directed to perform by the Initial Beneficiary in a manner not contrary to the terms of this Agreement, from time to time, including, without limitation, in connection with (i) a financing transaction of any sort undertaken by the Initial Beneficiary or a Special Purpose Entity or any leasing transaction entered into by the Initial Beneficiary or Special Purpose Entity as lessor or lessee, which is, in any case, secured, directly or indirectly, by Trust Assets, by all or part of the Undivided Trust Interest or by any SUBI or any interest therein including, without limitation, any financing undertaken in connection with the issuance and assignment of a SUBI and related SUBI Certificate, (ii) any sale, transfer or pledge by the Initial Beneficiary or a Special Purpose Entity of any interest in one or more SUBIs, (iii) any other asset securitization, sale-leaseback, secured loan or similar transaction involving Trust Assets or any beneficial interest therein or in the Trust (the transactions in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) are collectively referred to herein as “Financings”), (iv) sales by the Trust of User Leases and other Trust Assets to the extent permitted by the terms of any existing Financings (so long as the Certificate of Title of any Leased Vehicle so sold is amended to reflect the transfer of ownership thereof from the Trust, unless applicable law permits the transfer of ownership of a motor vehicle without an amendment to the vehicle’s certificate of title) or (v) activities ancillary to any of the foregoing.

8

(b) Except as provided in or otherwise expressly contemplated by this Agreement or any Servicing Agreement, the Trust shall not (i) issue beneficial or other interests in the Trust Assets or securities of the Trust other than the UTI and UTI Certificates and one or more SUBIs and SUBI Certificates; (ii) borrow money on behalf of the Trust; (iii) make loans or extend credit on behalf of the Trust; (iv) underwrite securities; (v) offer securities in exchange for Trust Assets (other than UTI Certificates and SUBI Certificates); (vi) repurchase or otherwise reacquire any UTI Certificate or, except as permitted by or in connection with any Financing relating thereto, any SUBI Certificate; (vii) have any employees; (viii) own any real property or (ix) except for the acquisition of Trust Assets and agreements relating to any Financing, enter into any agreements or contracts.

(c) The Trustees may establish accounts and receive, maintain, invest and disburse funds in accordance with Part VII hereof and any Servicing Agreement or Supplement hereto.

(d) The Trust will enter into a Servicing Agreement with VCI, and the Trust shall from time to time enter into one or more other servicing agreements (each a “Servicing Agreement”) with VCI or with such other or additional Persons as the holder of the UTI Certificate or, subject to the provisions of the agreements governing any Financing, any SUBI Certificate, shall designate in writing with respect to the applicable Portfolio represented by such Certificate (each, in such capacity, a “Servicer”). VCI is hereby designated as the initial Servicer. Each Servicing Agreement shall specify various duties, powers, liabilities, obligations and compensation of the Servicer with respect to the administration and servicing of those Trust Assets as to which such Servicing Agreement applies, including, without limitation, Leased Vehicles and User Leases. The Trust may from time to time enter into one or more agreements (each, a “Nominee Agreement”) with any Person that the Initial Beneficiary shall designate, such Person to serve as a nominee for the Trust in those jurisdictions where the Trust may not be named as owner on Certificates of Title. The Trustees, and each of them, on behalf of the Trust, shall execute and deliver such documents, certificates, applications, powers of attorney and registrations as shall be requested and prepared by a Servicer pursuant to a Servicing Agreement or by the Initial Beneficiary in connection with the administration of the Trust or the servicing of the Trust Assets, including, without limitation, a power of attorney to each Dealer and the Servicer and, to the extent deemed appropriate by the Servicer, any lessee under a User Lease (an “End User”); provided, however, that no Trustee shall be obligated to enter into any such documents, certificates, applications, powers of attorney or registrations that adversely affect such Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

(e) The Trustees and the Trust shall have such powers as are necessary and appropriate to the conduct of their duties as set forth in this Agreement, the Servicing Agreements and the SUBI Supplements.

SECTION 5.2. DUTY OF CARE.

(a) No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve any Trustee from liability for its own grossly negligent action (or, with respect to any handling or disbursement of

9

funds, its own negligent action), its own grossly negligent failure to act (or, with respect to any handling or disbursement of funds, its own negligent failure to act), its own bad faith, its own breach of its representations, warranties or covenants given in its individual capacity or its own willful misfeasance, or similar acts or omissions of any Trust Agent; provided, however, that:

(i) a Trustee shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it or any error of judgment, in each case made in good faith by any officer of, or any other employee of the corporate trust office of, such Trustee or any Trust Agent, including any vice-president, trust officer or any other officer of such Trustee or such Trust Agent customarily performing functions similar to those performed by such officers or to whom any corporate trust matter is referred because of such Person’s knowledge of or familiarity with the particular subject, unless it shall be proved that such Trustee or Trust Agent was grossly negligent (or with respect to any handling or disbursement of funds, negligent) or acted with willful misfeasance in performing its duties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and

(ii) a Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken in good faith in accordance with the express direction of the Initial Beneficiary (to the extent relating to the Undivided Trust Interest) or the holder or pledgee of a SUBI Certificate in connection with a Financing (to the extent relating to a SUBI) relating to the exercise of any trust power conferred upon such Trustee under this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 5.2(a), a Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties under this Agreement, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there shall be reasonable grounds for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it, and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require a Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner or omission of performance of, any of the duties or obligations of a Servicer under any Servicing Agreement.

(c) Except for actions expressly authorized by this Agreement, a Trustee shall take no action as to which such Trustee has been notified in writing by the Initial Beneficiary, any Special Purpose Entity or other holder or pledgee of a related SUBI Certificate or UTI Certificate, or has actual knowledge, that such action would impair the beneficial interests in the Trust, would impair the value of any Trust Asset or would adversely affect the credit rating of any Financing.

(d) All information obtained by a Trustee regarding the administration of the Trust, whether upon the exercise of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise, shall be maintained by such Trustee in confidence and shall not be disclosed to any other Person other than to any Trust Agent, the Initial Beneficiary, any Special Purpose Entity (if applicable), any Servicer, any assignee of an interest in a UTI or UTI Certificate or any pledgee of a UTI Pledge (or any beneficiary of such pledge) and any assignee or pledgee of a SUBI Certificate, unless such

10

disclosure is permitted by this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby, is reasonably necessary or incidental to the Trustee’s discharge of its duties or exercise of its rights hereunder, is required by any applicable law or regulation or pursuant to subpoena (and such Trustee has provided notice thereof to the Initial Beneficiary), or such information is already otherwise publicly available.

SECTION 5.3. CERTAIN MATTERS AFFECTING THE TRUSTEES.

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement:

(a) a Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, officer’s certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. In particular, but without limitation, whenever in this Agreement it is provided that a Trustee shall receive or may rely on the instructions or directions of the Initial Beneficiary, a Special Purpose Entity, or the holder, assignee or pledgee of a UTI Certificate or a SUBI Certificate in connection with a Financing, any written instruction or direction purporting to bear the signature of any officer of the Initial Beneficiary, a Special Purpose Entity, or the holder, assignee or pledgee of a UTI Certificate or a SUBI Certificate in connection with a Financing reasonably believed by it to be genuine may be deemed by such Trustee to have been signed or presented by the proper party;

(b) a Trustee may consult with counsel, and any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it under this Agreement in good faith and in accordance with such opinion of counsel;

(c) a Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the discretionary rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement, or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation under this Agreement or in relation to this Agreement, at the request, order or direction of the Initial Beneficiary, a Special Purpose Entity, the assignee or pledgee of a UTI Certificate or a SUBI Certificate in connection with a Financing or any other beneficiary of the Trust pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless such requesting Person(s) shall have offered to such Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred therein or thereby;

(d) a Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by the Initial Beneficiary, a Special Purpose Entity, or by the assignee or pledgee of a UTI Certificate or any holder, assignee or pledgee of a SUBI Certificate in connection with a Financing; provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to such Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of such Trustee, not reasonably assured to such Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Agreement, such Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such

11

cost, expense or liability as a condition to so proceeding; the reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid by the Person(s) requesting such examination or, if paid by such Trustee, shall be reimbursed as an expense of the Trust upon demand; and

(e) a Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers under this Agreement or perform any duties under this Agreement either directly or by or through agents or attorneys or one or more custodians and the Trustee shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of any agent or attorney selected by the Trustee in good faith with reasonable care. A Trustee may delegate its duties and responsibilities hereunder to a sub-trustee and may from time to time enter into one or more agency agreements (each a “Trust Agency Agreement”) with such Person or Persons, including, without limitation, any Affiliate of such Trustee (each a “Trust Agent”), as are by experience and expertise qualified to act in a trustee capacity and otherwise acceptable to the Initial Beneficiary and any assignee or pledgee of a SUBI Certificate in connection with a Financing. A Trustee shall provide seven (7) days prior written notice to the Initial Beneficiary of any such Trust Agency Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Trustee shall replace any Trust Agent if (i) in the good faith judgment of the Initial Beneficiary, the compensation or level of service of such Trust Agent shall no longer be reasonably competitive with those of any alternative agent reasonably proposed by the Initial Beneficiary or (ii) if the Trust Agent has materially breached its obligations under the Trust Agency Agreement or the Initial Beneficiary or any assignee or pledgee of a UTI Certificate or any holder, assignee or pledgee of a SUBI Certificate in connection with a Financing has given written notice to such Trustee and the Trust Agent of such breach, and the Trust Agent has not cured such breach in all material respects within fifteen (15) Business Days thereafter (for purposes of this Agreement, “Business Day” means any day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banking institutions in Michigan, New York, Illinois, Delaware or the city and state in which the principal corporate trust office of any other Trustee is located, are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to be closed). Such Trust Agency Agreement shall specify the duties, powers, liabilities, obligations and compensation of such Trust Agent(s) to carry out on behalf of such Trustee any or all of its obligations as Trustee of the Trust arising under this Agreement or otherwise and shall contain a non-petition covenant substantially identical to that set forth in Section 6.9; provided, however, that nothing contained in any Trust Agency Agreement shall excuse, limit or otherwise affect any power, duty, obligation, liability or compensation otherwise applicable to such Trustee hereunder. The Trust shall pay such amount to the Trust Agent as reasonable compensation for its services and shall provide such reimbursement of expenses as are separately agreed by such Trustee, the Initial Beneficiary and the Trust Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall any Nominee Agreement be deemed to be a Trust Agency Agreement, or any Servicer or any Affiliate thereof or any Person referred to in the penultimate sentence of Section 5.1(d) be deemed to be a Trust Agent.

SECTION 5.4. TRUSTEES NOT LIABLE FOR CERTIFICATES OR USER LEASES.

A Trustee shall have no obligation to perform any of the duties of the Initial Beneficiary or any Servicer unless explicitly set forth in this Agreement or any Servicing Agreement. A

12

Trustee shall at no time have any responsibility or liability for or with respect to (a) the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement (except as set forth in Section 6.7) or the due execution hereof by the Initial Beneficiary or the legality, validity and enforceability of any security interest in any Trust Asset; (b) the perfection or priority of such a security interest or the maintenance of any such perfection and priority; (c) the efficacy of the Trust or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed to the Initial Beneficiary or its permitted assignee(s) under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the existence, condition, location and ownership of any Trust Asset; (d) the existence and enforceability of any Insurance Policy; (e) the existence and contents of any User Lease or any computer or other record thereof; (f) the validity of the assignment of any Trust Asset to the Trust or of any intervening assignment; (g) the completeness of any User Lease; (h) the performance or enforcement of any User Lease; (i) the compliance by the Initial Beneficiary or any Servicer with any covenant or the breach by the Initial Beneficiary or any Servicer of any warranty or representation in any document and the accuracy of any such warranty or representation prior to such Trustee’s receipt of notice or other discovery of any noncompliance therewith or any breach thereof; (j) any investment of monies by any Servicer or any loss resulting therefrom (it being understood that such Trustee shall remain responsible for any Trust Assets that it may hold); (k) the acts or omissions of any Dealer or any other Person, the Initial Beneficiary, any Servicer or any End User under, or in connection with the origination of, any User Lease; (l) any action of any Servicer taken in the name of such Trustee or the acts or omissions of any Servicer under any Servicing Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby or thereby; (m) any action by such Trustee taken at the instruction of the Initial Beneficiary or any Servicer; or (n) the preparation, execution or filing of any document or report with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any state securities commission or agency; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve any Trustee of its obligation to perform its duties under this Agreement. Except with respect to a claim based on the failure of a Trustee to perform its duties (i) under this Agreement to authenticate and deliver Certificates at the request of the Initial Beneficiary, or (ii) as set forth in Sections 5.1(d), 6.9 and 6.10, or based on a Trustee’s or any Trust Agent’s willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence, no recourse shall be had against the Person or institution serving as a Trustee in its individual capacity for any claim based on any provision of this Agreement or any Servicing Agreement, or any Trust Asset or assignment thereof. A Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Initial Beneficiary or a Special Purpose Entity or any other holder of any of the SUBI Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds properly paid to any Servicer pursuant to any Servicing Agreement.

SECTION 5.5. INDEMNITY OF TRUSTEES AND TRUST AGENTS.

Each Trustee and any Trust Agent shall be indemnified and held harmless (but only out of and to the extent of the Trust Assets allocated to the Portfolio for which such Trustee acts as trustee) with respect to any loss, liability or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ and other professionals’ fees and expenses (collectively “Claims”), arising out of or incurred in connection with (a) any of the Trust Assets (including, without limitation, any Claims relating to User Leases, Leased Vehicles, consumer fraud, consumer leasing act violations, misrepresentation, deceptive and unfair trade practices, and any other claims arising in connection with any User

13

Lease, personal injury or property damage claims arising with respect to any Leased Vehicle or any claim with respect to any tax arising with respect to any Trust Asset) or (b) such Trustee’s or Trust Agent’s acceptance or performance of the trusts and duties contained in this Agreement or any Trust Agency Agreement, with any allocation of such indemnification among the Trust Assets to be made as provided for in Section 7.1(b) hereof, provided, however, that neither a Trustee nor any Trust Agent shall be indemnified or held harmless out of the Trust Assets as to any Claim (i) for which the Initial Beneficiary, a Servicer or any of their respective Affiliates shall be liable and shall have paid pursuant to this Agreement or a Servicing Agreement, (ii) incurred by reason of such Trustee’s or such Trust Agent’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence, or (iii) incurred by reason of such Trustee Bank’s breach of its respective representations and warranties pursuant to any Servicing Agreement or of Section 6.7 of this Agreement. The UTI Trustee shall in no event have any recourse to any SUBI Assets, including such SUBI Assets which were UTI Assets at the time a Claim against the UTI Trustee arose, and no SUBI Trustee shall have any recourse to any UTI Assets or any Trust Assets allocated to any other SUBI.

SECTION 5.6. TRUSTEE’S RIGHT NOT TO ACT.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Trustee shall have the right to decline to act in any particular manner otherwise provided for herein if such Trustee, being advised in writing by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken, or if such Trustee in good faith shall determine that such action would be illegal or subject such Trustee to personal liability or be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other beneficiaries of the Trust.

SECTION 5.7. DOING BUSINESS IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, neither a Trustee Bank nor the related Trustee shall be required to take any action in any jurisdiction other than in the State of its incorporation or any State in which it is qualified to do business (each, a “State of Qualification”) if the taking of such action may (i) require the consent, approval, authorization or order of, or the giving of notice to, or the registration with, or the taking of any other action in respect of, any state or other governmental authority or agency of any jurisdiction other than a State of Qualification; (ii) result in any fee, tax or other governmental charge under the laws of any jurisdiction or any political subdivisions thereof in existence on the date hereof, other than a State of Qualification, becoming payable by the Trustee Bank or (iii) subject the Trustee Bank to personal jurisdiction in any jurisdiction other than a State of Qualification for causes of action arising from acts unrelated to the consummation of the transactions by such Trustee Bank or the related Trustee, as the case may be, contemplated hereby. In the event that a Trustee does not take any action because such action may result in the consequences described in the preceding sentence, such Trustee will appoint an additional trustee pursuant to Section 6.6 to proceed with such action.

Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with a Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, such Trustee. Each such instrument shall be filed with such Trustee and a copy thereof given to each Servicer.

Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the applicable Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts relating to this Agreement and the Trust Assets shall vest in and be exercised by the applicable Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

(d) No Conflict. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, nor compliance with the provisions

18

hereof, will conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default (with notice or passage of time or both) under any provision of any law, governmental rule or regulation, judgment, decree or order binding on the Trustee or the articles of association or by-laws of the Trustee or any provision of any mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement or other instrument to which the Trustee is a party or by which it is bound; and

Number UTI-1

THIS CERTIFIES THAT VW Credit, Inc. is the registered owner of a nonassessable, fully-paid, exclusive undivided interest in the Trust Assets, other than SUBI Assets (such interest, an “Undivided Trust Interest”), of VW Credit Leasing, Ltd., a Delaware business trust (the “Trust”), formed pursuant to a Trust Agreement dated and effective as of June 2, 1999 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Agreement”), between VW Credit, Inc., as settlor and initial beneficiary (the “Initial Beneficiary”), U.S. Bank Trust National Association, as trustee of the UTI (together with any successor or permitted assign, the “UTI Trustee”) and as Administrative Trustee (together with any successor or permitted assign, the “Administrative Trustee”) and Wilmington Trust Company, as Delaware Trustee (together with any successor or permitted assign, the “Delaware Trustee”). A summary of certain of the pertinent portions of the Agreement is set forth below. To the extent not otherwise defined herein, the capitalized terms herein have the meanings set forth in the Agreement.

The obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement and the Trust created thereby shall terminate upon the unanimous written agreement of all of the Certificateholders.

Unless this Certificate shall have a certificate of authentication attached, executed by the Administrative Trustee or an agent thereof by manual signature, this Certificate shall not entitle the holder hereof to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.
